Our Story
Stable began close to our home in St. Kilda, and has now expanded to six locations across inner Melbourne (St Kilda, Fitzroy, CBD, Prahran, Hampton and Travancore). At each Stable clinic you will find a team of knowledgeable, strong and diligent therapists who specialise in deep tissue remedial massage, myotherapy and sports massage.
We also offer dry needling and pregnancy massage.
Our clinics are open 7 days a week, and our reception team are happy to take bookings over the phone. For late night or early morning bookings feel free to jump into our online booking system.
Our Founder
Hi I’m Zoe, mother of three and avid tennis player. I started Stable Massage in 1998 as a qualified massage therapist. At the time I was focusing on providing strong deep tissue massage to highly active and hard working clients. The treatments helped with pain reduction, reduced stiffness and aches, and increased range of movement – supporting clients to relax, recover and perform at their optimal ability.
My husband and I realised that the majority of health clinics focused primarily on relaxation massage and were not providing the benefits of deep tissue massage therapy to their clientele. We saw a clear opportunity to provide these specialised services, and Stable Massage was born!
I look forward to you visiting the clinics and please do not hesitate to give me any feedback, either online or by giving us a call.

She was very thorough and went above and beyond to fit in as much as possible in a half an hour time slot as she did find some other underlying issues on my body that have been causing my back pain. Would highly recommend her to anyone! read less

I go to Stable Massage in St Kilda which is easy to get to and always easy to find a car spot in Alma Road.

The surroundings are wonderful. Parking is easy. You can indulge yourself in any level of delight you can wish for. Make sure you ask when booking, what kind of treatment you would like. They cater to all levels, from full relaxation to popping out those tired, hard, worn muscles. Never been disappointed. read less

For a start it's a beautiful historic house in St Kilda with a lovely atmosphere.
Over the years I've seen several highly talented remedial and myotherapists.
For the last couple of years at least I've been going to Janine every couple of weeks and she really is amazing. She just knows intuitively what you need and will work with your body. You just leave floating.
Also you can claim some through HICAPS.

The pain and symptoms are almost gone and he has helped me dramatically and reduced all of the inflammation.
I have been a regular client of Richie and I wouldn't use anyone else. I've tried several practitioners over the years and no one can provide the same level of service and relief from pain.
He's trustworthy, reliable and always on time. Without Ritchie I'd be watching the band instead of performing with them:)
Definitely the best service in the country!!! read less
